Clay tile roof replacement
Spanish S clay tile, selected to preserve the home's architectural character while improving long-term performance.
Tile, metal, asphalt shingle and flat roofing for South Florida's architecturally distinctive homes — replaced, repaired and maintained by one family company for four decades.
The company · Est. 1985
Frank Istueta earned his contractor's license and founded Istueta Roofing in 1985 with a single focus: residential roofing for South Florida homes where architecture, materials and long-term performance matter.
Forty-one years in, it is still a family business. Frank remains the person who reviews the tile-spec calls on the projects that need a founder's eye, and many crew members have been with the company for 25 years or more — continuity homeowners can feel through every phase of the job.
On a premier Miami home, roofing is architecture. The right profile, color and detail shape how a home looks from the street, performs in South Florida weather, and ages over the next four decades.
That is the whole thesis: design and performance, decided together, executed with discipline.
